For the money, the Bushman® knives might be the strongest survival/outdoor knives in the world! Unlike most hollow handled survival knives, there is no joint or seam between the blades and handles that requires a mechanical fastener. Instead, the Bushman’s® blades and integral handles are each expertly cold forged out of a single piece of 2.5mm thick SK-5 high carbon steel. The resulting knives are expertly heat-treated and tempered to RC54 and, when subjected to our tests, have withstood over two tons of pressure on their blade/handle transition!
Every Bushman® blade has been carefully grounding to an extra thin edge, and then honed and buffed by hand until razor sharp. The Bushman® knives are versatile too! Their hollow handles will accept survival supplies or a variety of handle extensions that can maximize reach, leverage, or ease of throwing. They are available in two blade styles. Both feature continuously curved blades that are ideal for skinning and will pierce, cut, slash, slice, and shear like you won’t believe.
They come complete with the new heavy-duty plastic Secure-Ex sheath which features an attached ferrocerium fire steel.
